UK indie-rock heroes Foals have locked in headline dates in Melbourne, Sydney and Perth in support of last month’s bumper LP Everything Not Saved Will Be Forgotten Pt. 1, with LA-based psychedelic unit Warpaint jumping on for support duties.
Electronic wunderkind James Blake has also announced a series of intimate sideshows at Melbourne’s Forum and Sydney’s Enmore Theatre, offering fans a unique opportunity to see the typically arena-bound artist in a smaller venue. With the lush-but-hush textures of his latest effort Assume Form still doing the heavy rounds in the Mixdown office, we seriously can’t wait for this one.
Rising arena-rock stars Catfish And The Bottlemen are also locked in for headline shows in Perth, Melbourne and Sydney, while iconic UK hip-hop artist The Streets is also set to play shows on both sides of Australia, with Melbourne receiving a DJ set from The Avalanches as support for the evening.
Elsewhere, FIDLAR, Little Simz, Tycho, Maribou State, Honne, The Nude Party, Sam Fender, Jacob Banks, Phony People and The Midnight have also been announced to be performing a string of sideshows for the festival.
